Text of the page (random words):
sss although the church has always had a pro woman pro man pro child pro family pro life body positive stance with regard to contraception and abortion remember whenever we say no to something we re saying yes to something else when humanae vitae was issued it caused not only an uproar among the faithful but a well rather unfaithful reaction it was rejected and catholics contracepted anyway the pill was invented in 1960 without realizing it catholics and anyone else who uses contraception brought the sexual revolution into their marriages but the sexrev is the antithesis of marriage pope paul s prescient predictions now we should obey god his word his church and right reason even if we don t fully understand while we delve deeper st anselm called this faith seeking understanding but that didn t happen so here we are 50 years later reaping the bitter fruits that paul vi predicted would come to fruition if society wholeheartedly embraced contraception promiscuity marital infidelity breakdown of the family increased objectification of women governments mandating promoting anti life policies thinking we can do anything with the body as raw material instead of treating it as sacred how is humanae vitae pro woman humanae vitae is pro woman because it is attentive to and respects a woman s psyche body and her cycles the man also must be attentive to a woman s psyche body and her cycles mother nature has cycles it s not always spring and summer there s fall and winter mother church has cycles it s not always christmas and easter there s advent and lent women have cycles monthly fertility cycles women are not always available that s the lie of male domination porn prostitution a misunderstanding of scripture and contraception matrimony means mother s mission cuz the man doesn t get preggers the woman does and when she does it s all about her and the wee one s it s not about artificial you will never hear me use the word artificial before the word contraception that s not the prob it s not artificial vs natural means catholics love true progress we love science and medicine and technology and we use them all the time in accord with human dignity hearing aids pacemakers operations medicine etc there is nothing as natural as an artificial arm what why because a prosthesis takes the place of a missing disabled arm and does what an arm does contraception does not do what a healthy functioning system in the body does namely fertility it does the exact opposite and turns a healthy functioning body system into an unhealthy malfunctioning system often over long periods of time natural family planning is a bit of a misnomer natural family planning first and foremost is about the husband and wife s total gift of body and soul to each other not about how many children to have and when to have them nfp is primarily about not holding anything back with contraception it s i love all of you except your fertility which you must suppress what happens physically in the marital embrace also happens spiritually because we are body and soul at all times and the lack of a total gift can erode and cool the relationship over time without the couple even understanding what s happening think about these terms and apply them spiritually withdrawal spermicide barrier method etc and with a condom there s not even true physical contact arby s has the meats and we have the science but god is so merciful to us that now we have the science biology and social sciences that prove beyond the shadow of a doubt that what god told us is good for us actually is and what god told us is bad for us actually is the physical spiritual psychological relational and societal effects of contraception are damaging and destructive the physical spiritual psychological relational and societal effects of nfp are healthy and empowering i m going to quote only one statistic here that should make all of us sit up and pay attention and want to know everything we can about nfp the divorce rate of nfp couples is 1 2 resources nfp toronto billings method https toronto naturalfamilyplanning ca new documentary by former pro abortion radical feminist and atheist www

share to x share to facebook share to pinterest july 8 2018 netflix the good place at first i avoided the nbc series the good place which just completed its second season because it looked like the same old same old heaven and hell reimagined cutesie tripe that feeds into the trivialization of eternity and the life to come but at the recommendation of a priest friend i gave it a whirl not bad and seasoned with some pretty good yuks kristen bell plays eleanor who has died and just arrived in the good place ted danson plays the architect and guide of the pleasantville like neighborhood she s been assigned to but all is not well in paradise flaws and deceptions begin to mount the most glaring incongruity is the fact that eleanor is well not really a good person without doing spoilers since it s the premise of the whole show eleanor wound up in heaven by mistake yes that s right a glitch there s bureaucracy even in the realms above sent fake eleanor to heaven in place of real eleanor they have the same unusual last name who wound up in the bad place once this fact is revealed the fun begins fake eleanor takes philosophy lessons smacking of moralism from a friend in order to try to become a better person so she can stay in the good place but is it ethical that she deprive real eleanor of her well earned eternal reward of course the theology here is whack there are no choices or changes in eternity and unlike what jesus told us that there s a fixed uncrossable chasm between heaven and hell folks from the bad place can hop on a train to the gp to menace and threaten fake eleanor with basically damnation this crew is hilarious and they sure take an awful lot of selfies another thoroughly creative comedic treat is the a i holographic personal assistant janet who even has a counterpart bad janet similar to alexa you just call out her name and she appears but most side splitting of all is listening to fake eleanor try to swear never gets old some serious writing heft is behind this show but in the end there s no god yet anyway and heaven is not being with god god s home it s the banal my happy place and being a good person is pretty generic and relativistic therefore the good place joins the canon of ersatz celestial misfires however for sheer entertainment and zero actual inspiration the good place earns its wings season 2 so it s becoming clear to me that so far gp is about being good without god see dawkins gp is desperately trying to find reasons to be good without god very kantian so now the motive to be good is vascillating between you shouldn t be good in hopes of a reward me why not to we should be good because of what we owe to each other huh and we should be good because of our connection with others more huh oh and they re playing up sex of all kinds often just mentionining different kinds of sex that s being engaged in and get this sex is amoral it has nothing absolutely nothing to do with being good or bad so indulge posted by

portman and oscar isaac starts off intriguingly lena is a woman whose soldier husband is sent on a secret mission and goes missing but lena a biologist makes the case that she should go in search of him there are lots of unanswered questions from the get go was he unfaithful did he go insane what happened to all the other soldiers who go on this same mission and never return the secret mission is to investigate a remote part of earth that seems to be taken over by an alien force an area that is ever growing and in which the laws of physics don t apply lena finds traces and belongings of former explorers including a video of her husband who s obviously in distress the suspense only grows in this fantastical but hostile world annihilation was directed by alex garland who also directed the stunning flawless and haunting ex machina for which alicia vikander should have gotten an academy award but i digress however garland s directing and or the cinematography and or editing in annihilation has a hokey quality there s just something hard to buy into about it we never get lost ourselves in the world he s created as moviegoers should but the ending oh dear the filmmakers saved the worst for last i m not going to do a spoiler because the film already spoiled itself all i will say is trite been done before invasion of the body snatchers and do you like mime do you like robot mime i didn t think so me neither but now i ve probably made you so curious that you will watch annihilation don t say i didn t warn you p s i think this movie was simply a vehicle for testing out some new cgi technology like the appalling polar express there really is no other explanation or excuse posted by sr helena burns fsp at 11 07 pm no comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest movies a quiet place the new horror film a quiet place sets forth a unique promising and engaging world a rural family with young children finds itself in the midst of an invasion of creatures who track and kill their victims by sound it s absolutely necessary that this family lives their lives in utter and encompassing silence so is this er a silent film kind of there s sign language and subtitles handmotions and reading of lips and a few special places where the creatures can t hear the spoken word makes you really pay attention in a quiet place john krazinski directs himself and his wife emily blunt as they play the beleaguered couple parents who make the best of their nightmarish existence with love smiles and finding ways to make life feel normal for their kids you can only imagine the survival gymnastics that happen when a new noisy baby is born into the midst of this tomb like silence my one beef with a quiet place is the monsters is it just me or do all movie monsters now look almost exactly alike about 6 feet tall they re fast and move on super long limbs with a kind of crouching gait boxy heads that look like huge exposed granite skulls
